Katee Sackhoff has sent Marvel fans into a frenzy following some very cryptic tweets.

The actress has been linked to the role of Carole Danvers aka Ms Marvel for some time, but the rumours returned to the spotlight recently when she confirmed a meeting with Marvel chief Stan Lee at the end of last month.

Now she has been tweeting clues to a ‘super secret’ job she has landed, promising to tweet photo clues over the next three days.

The first clue was an image of herself appearing to get a model of her face made for, some fans guessed, Ms Marvel’s face mask.

The second photo was a close up of something red and black, but her followers on Twitter found it hard to tell what on earth it was.
